Figure 28. Constant ON time PWM control
The duty cycle of the buck converter in steady state is:
Equation 2
The PWM control works at a nearly fixed frequency f
Equation 3
As mentioned the steady state switching frequency is theoretically independent from battery
voltage and from output voltage.
Actually the frequency depends on parasitic voltage drops that are present during the
charging path(high side switch resistance, inductor resistance(DCR)) and discharging
path(low side switch resistance, DCR).
As a result the switching frequency increases as a function of the load current.
Standard switching frequency values can be selected for both sections by pin FSEL as
shown in the following table:
Table 6.
FSEL = VREF
FSEL = LDO5
FSEL = GND
